Chapter 887: 263: Huanhuan makes a move, halt!_3

Noah Reed took a deep breath, went to the door, tried to steady his breath, “I’m occupied at the moment, come back in half an hour.”

“Sure, Manager Jocelyn.”

Amelia, who was outside, turned to leave.

Yet, Noah found himself rooted to the spot.

After the sobbing, his energy seems drained in an instant, his mind a cloudy mass.

On the other side.

...

As soon as Amelia returned to the Sales Department, she started to gossip with her colleagues, “Isn’t it strange? I just went to Jocelyn’s office, and he had locked the door from inside. And he asked me to come back in half an hour.”

You need to know, Noah Reed rarely keeps his office door closed.

Today was too unusual.

To speak of which, Isla instantly said, “Haven’t you guys noticed? Ella is behaving strangely.”

Upon hearing this, Amelia lifted her head to look at Delia Frieman, busy at work, “Isn’t Ella serious? I can’t see anything different.”

Hearing this, Gehret came over immediately and lowered his voice, “You guys didn’t know, did you? I just saw Ella run away crying with the deputy team leader! She looked so devastated! Something must have happened between these two. You see, Jocelyn didn’t even come to our Sales Department today!”

With these words, everyone’s curiosity was immediately triggered.

To be born human is to be born a gossip, right?

“That’s too weird. If Ella rejected Jocelyn, only Jocelyn should be heartbroken. Why would Ella cry?”

“We’ll know by tomorrow morning if Jocelyn will still give Ella flowers!”

“Right, right, right!”

“Gehret,” just then, Delia’s voice came through the air, “Could you come over?”

Gehret immediately jogged over, “Ella, did you want me for something?”

“Yes.” Delia turns a page in a file, “This report seems incorrect. Could you check with Mina?”

Gehret studied Delia’s face closely and, inwardly, really admired her. She was so good at controlling her emotions.

Despite her tearful state just moments ago, there wasn’t a hint of sadness on her face now.

As if nothing had happened.

Scary.

Truly scary!

No wonder she could become a team leader.

At the same time, Gehret was ever more curious about what happened between Delia Frieman and Noah Reed.

“What are you doing standing there?” Just then, Delia suddenly spoke.

Gehret immediately snapped back to reality, “Ella, I’m leaving now.”

“Go ahead.” Delia nodded.

Lunchtime soon arrived.

Delia went to the canteen with the deputy team leader.

The canteen on the second floor was crowded.

The deputy team leader, with Delia on his arm, surprisingly said, “Ella, Jocelyn didn’t show up today!”

Everyone in the company knows that Noah Reed was pursuing Delia.

So, he always came to the canteen on the second floor to have lunch with Delia. Even if Delia didn’t want to sit with him, he would show his face.

But today.

Noah Reed was nowhere to be seen.

“Um,” there was nothing unusual about Delia’s face, she said smilingly, “I told you, it’s just a spur of the moment thing.”

Who would like a woman like her?

Delia Frieman kept her emotions under control and turned to the deputy team leader, “What would you like to eat today?”

“How about hot and sour noodles? And you?”

Delia nodded, “Anything is fine with me.”

Both of them got in line at the hot and sour noodle stall.

In the past, Noah Reed would certainly be tagging along behind Delia, eating whatever she ate.

The deputy team leader was very willing to play matchmaker for them.

It felt rather strange for him to suddenly lose a company.

As if things had suddenly cooled down.

The other employees in the canteen also found it a bit strange.

Did Jocelyn get tired of Delia?

Finally got over Delia?

Canteen on the fifth floor.

Noah Reed sat numb and emotionless eating the food in his bowl, as if chewing wax.

He was not the only one who disliked Delia.

There was him too.

He couldn’t help but think of Delia.

Who was she with now?

What was she eating…

Couldn’t keep thinking about it.

Must not think about it.

Noah Reed sternly warned himself in his heart.

You won’t end up with Delia.

Don’t be foolish!

But the more you try to restrain, the less you can restrain.

What goes far will surely rebound.

“Manager Jocelyn! Why aren’t you in the second floor canteen today?” Just then, Gerald Connell, the Production Manager, walked over with his lunch tray, his eyes full of curiosity.

The world has truly turned upside-down.
